Why act early in Angmering-on-Sea
Smells from a neglected trap are hard to ignore. Decomposing waste in the trap smells bad and the smell carries. Cleaning it removes the cause. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Angmering-on-Sea
If the sinks drain slowly or smell, the trap is often the cause. We find the trap, empty it and clean it and run water through to check it drains. The work covers restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and under-sink grease traps, and common reasons people get in touch are a full, neglected grease trap and a small trap that fills too quickly.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Advice
Grease trap cleaning around Angmering-on-Sea
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 39 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 15 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Angmering-on-Sea. Each of them sends fat, oil and grease towards the drain, which is why grease traps need regular emptying. Food hygiene inspections in Angmering-on-Sea are the job of Arun council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Ecclesden Manor, about 1.7 miles north, is one of the historic houses around Angmering-on-Sea; event kitchens at places like that work in bursts, so a deep clean after a busy season helps. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Angmering-on-Sea, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking. A summer deep clean suits schools such as East Preston Infant School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
Collect waste cooking oil separately rather than pouring it down the sink, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It makes a real difference.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.

We price it once we know the trap and how often it needs cleaning. Get in touch and we’ll send you a fixed quote before any work starts.
